Hello, Schiava. 🍷 Light-bodied, bright, a little earthy, a little spicy — this charming Northern Italian red is the kind of wine that surprises people in the best way possible.

If you love Pinot Noir, Gamay, or just discovering bottles with personality, Schiava deserves a spot in your glass. It’s easygoing, food-friendly, and perfect for long conversations, patio evenings, and “just one more sip.”

✨ Come meet your new favorite red.

🌸 Rosé? Always a good idea. Crisp, refreshing, endlessly drinkable... rosé season may come and go, but around here, we keep the good bottles flowing year-round.

From bright Provençal classics to juicy, fruit-forward favorites, there’s a rosé for every patio hang, dinner party, picnic, or random Tuesday that deserves a little upgrade. At Market Street Wine, we take our pink wine seriously… even when we’re having fun with it.

💕 Come grab a bottle of rosé and see what’s chilling in the shop.

There’s always something fun unfolding at Market Street Wine. 🍷 From Friday night tastings in the cellar to discovering small producers, new arrivals, and conversation-worthy bottles, this little wine shop has been bringing Charlottesville together for decades.⁠
⁠
One week it’s mountain wines from Shenandoah Valley, the next it’s a deep dive into Italy or Spain — and somehow every tasting turns into a night worth remembering. Good wine has a way of doing that.⁠

✨ Stop by, grab a bottle, and see what everyone’s talking about.⁠

🍷 At tonight's wine tasting, we’re taking a little trip to the mountain villages and rolling hills of Italy... no passport required. 🇮🇹 Think food-worthy reds, bright zesty Vermentino, and wines that taste like they were made for long dinners, fresh bread, and stories around the table.

At Market Street Wine, we love uncovering bottles with personality, history, and a true sense of place. The mountain wines of Italy bring all of that and more... rustic, elegant, and endlessly drinkable.

👉️ Come explore the mountains of Italy with us and discover something unforgettable. Stop by any time 5-7 pm.
